If you insist

Write a film review for the first time, dedicated to the most meaningful movie I have seen this year.
Jiang Ge thinks that the dentist is not a good person, because the dentist asked him to kill his father in front of the child, even though he killed a damn villain. In that deceitful society, it is impossible to be a simple good person in the high-risk profession of a bounty hunter.
Judging from the first half of the film, this dentist from Germany is smart, cunning, and bold. In the face of dangerous situations time and time again, he can always calm down the dangers until his duel with Leonardo.
Lao Lai is a treacherous and cruel slave-owner businessman. He has been cruel and numb since he was a slave-owner. He adapts to the rules of the game in this environment and plays very well because he also has his own principles.
In this duel, Lao Lai won. The process was quite exciting, and Lao Lai's proficient acting skills even more slavishly portrayed the treacherousness of the slave owner and merchant.
At this point, both parties played according to the rules. Although there was a lot of money in his wallet, Lao Lai only took the 12K he deserved. What he enjoyed more was the victory. As a loser, the dentist also accepted the failure very frankly.
Then came the climax of this movie, which is also the most thought-provoking part of the whole movie. Lao Lai was complacent as a winner, and generously invited the dentist to eat cakes, and also let the musicians play the German musician Beethoven's To Alice, showing the winner's tolerance and respect for the opponent. Hearing this tune, the dentist fell into deep thought, and a picture of the gladiator named Daddario being torn apart by a vicious dog emerged in his mind. Both Beethoven and Alexandre Dumas are pioneers in advocating freedom and equality. How can To Alice be the ending theme of this dirty deal? ! And Daddario's name as a gladiator is simply an insult to Dumas.
A feeling of grief and anger arose in the dentist's psychology, and at the same time, this sense of disgust made him decide to draw a clear line with Lao Lai-I'm sorry, I am not the same type of person as you. So he stopped the musician from continuing to play, and angrily walked into the study. Lao Lai felt that the dentist was irritated because he lost the matchup. He walked into the study to comfort the dentist, so that he could enjoy the sense of accomplishment brought by the victory. But he was wrong. In his eyes, the dentist was just a loser who couldn't afford to lose, but in the eyes of the dentist, he was a despicable winner.
Lao Lai is angry. Everyone is playing this game according to the rules of the game. As a winner, Lao Tzu already respects you. Why can't you give me respect? So he insisted that the dentist shake hands to complete the transaction.
When the dentist stretched out his hand and walked to the steps, I thought he was going to give in. He knew the consequences of firing this shot. But for this question of principle, he still couldn't hold back.
If it were me, would I shoot this shot? I don't know, probably not. Admire him! Then there was a touch of sentimentality, for the bloody nature that was fading away.
The following plot is very clichéd, but it still can’t stop me from giving this movie five points

  • Big Daddy: It's against the law for niggers to ride horses in this territory.

    Dr. King Schultz: This is my valet, and my valet doesn't walk...

    Big Daddy: I said, niggers on horses...

    Dr. King Schultz: His name is Django, he's a free man, and he can ride what he pleases!

    Big Daddy: Not on my property, not around my niggers he can't!

    Dr. King Schultz: My good sir, perhaps we got off on the wrong boot. Allow me to unring this bell! My name is Dr.King Schultz, this is my valet, Django, and these are our horses, Fritz, and Tony.

    [Fritz the horse does his bow, making the slave girls giggle]

    Dr. King Schultz: Mr. Bennett, I've been lead to believe you are a gentleman, and a business man. And it is in these capacities that we've ridden from Texas to Tennessee to talk with you now.

    Dr. King Schultz: I wish to purchase one of your nigger gals!

    Big Daddy: You and your Jimmie rode from Texas to Tennessee, to buy one of my nigger gals, no appointment, no nothin'?

    Dr. King Schultz: Well, I'm afraid so!

    Big Daddy: Well what if I say, I don't like you, or your fancy pants nigger, and I wouldn't sell you a tinkers damn! Now, what'cha gotta say about that?

    Dr. King Schultz: [Django hands his head, Schultz looks at him and looks back up at Big Daddy] Mr. Bennett! If you are the business man I've been led to believe you to be, I have five thousand things I might say that could change your mind.

    Big Daddy: [laughs] Well, c'mon inside and get yourself somethin' cool to drank!
